Participation of a non-covalent phosphointermediate in ATP hydrolysis by the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2(+)-cotransport ATPase

With increasing SDS/protein ratios, covalent phosphorylation by ATP and Pi is abolished before ATP hydrolysis (Pi production) ceases. We have shown that the SDS-dependent profiles of the decline in covalent phosphorylation by either substrate are virtually identical, reflecting a common mechanism of...

Summary:With increasing SDS/protein ratios, covalent phosphorylation by ATP and Pi is abolished before ATP hydrolysis (Pi production) ceases. We have shown that the SDS-dependent profiles of the decline in covalent phosphorylation by either substrate are virtually identical, reflecting a common mechanism of detergent interaction, while ATP can be hydrolysed via a non-covalent phosphointermediate. Our studies support that the transfer of both terminal Pi from ATP, as well as Pi to its final binding site, is a multistep reaction involving electrostatic interaction with one or more amino acid side chains, including a Lys residue.
